Grand Canyon IMAX Theater/National Geographic Visitor Center
Grand Canyon -- the Hidden Secrets is the most watched IMAX film ever, and it seems like it's been playing in Tusayan forever. Every inch of the six-story-high, 82-foot-wide screen is taken up by stunning footage of the canyon. Among the highlights of this 34-minute film: whitewater rafting that makes you feel as if you might drown, insects magnified to the size of buildings, and aerial footage from inside some of the canyon's rock narrows. Adjacent to the theater are a small food court and a National Geographic visitor center with information from the Arizona Office of Tourism. You can buy entrance passes to the Grand Canyon here. The Peregrine Fund (www.condorcliffs.org) now offers a "Condor Encounter Live Bird Show" just outside multiple times per day.
